Racheal and I are singing once again – this time the song “Show Yourself” from the movie Frozen II, which in the movie is sung by Idina Menzel’s character Queen Elsa. We had a lot of fun!
Our brother Zac provided the music, and sits in the background –
providing comic expressions and interjections. At one point, you can
hear our young siblings fighting in the background (not unusual). And
at the end, our 3-year-old brother Edward shows up – with his
lightsaber, of course.
All in all, a lot of fun! http://www.cepher.net/?af=59
Ah, werewolves. Popular trope in horror movies and novels. Usually portrayed as a human who transforms into a humanoid wolf (or as a human-wolf hybrid). Sometimes the condition (known as lycanthropy) is genetic and hereditary, sometimes it’s the result of a werewolf bite, sometimes the result of a curse. It’s often (but not necessarily) related to the full moon. https://youtu.be/TKIbuXsN2F4 https://youtu.be/myjd4uoq6dY https://youtu.be/kzZcDHHNINk However, these nightmarish beasts are not limited to the world of fiction; they are a legendary creature, seen and encountered by many people up until the present day. What are they? Some are Nephilim – the hybrid products of fallen angels mixing with humans and animals (and possibly humans with animals) in centuries and millennia past. Others are demonically possessed humans, at least some of which got into “the dark arts”, to borrow Harry Potter ‘s term for ...
Here is my Restored English Translation (RET) of Beresheet ( Genesis ) chapter 14. As usual, it contains the Hebrew names and a glossary for them. After that, at the very end, is a list of occurrences of the Aleph/ Tavs . Verse 5 is particularly interesting; it mentions that the confederacy that attacked Sodom and Gomorrah had previously struck the Rephaim, Zuzim, Emim and Horites. The Rephaim were a race of Nephilim , and the others may have been as well. Read the rest at https://jmshistorycorner.blogspot.com/2018/09/restored-english-translation-of-genesis_15.html
Here, at long last, is the article I promised you in The Forgotten Jews almost 3 months ago. The Ashkenazis, otherwise known as the Ashkenazim, make up the vast majority of world Jewry. They come from Eastern Europe, particularly (but not exclusively) Germany. The second-largest group is the Sephardim, who come from Spain, followed by the Mizrahim, who stayed in the Middle East. However, there is a theory – founded in the 1800s, and holding some small degree of popularity today – that the Ashkenazim are not Jews; but rather, Gentile descendants of the Khazars. The Khazars were a Turkish people whose empire, known as Khazaria, lasted from about 650 AD to 969 AD. Is this claim true, or false? THEIR NAME This argument is used fairly frequently for arguing a Khazarian (or at least Gentile) origin for the Ashkenazim. It derives from the following passage: The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras....
